The Drumheller Fire Department responded to an RV fire at the Drumheller RV Park shortly after 4p.m. on Tuesday, July 12.
Firefighters discovered a large Empress Coach-style motorhome with smoke billowing from the vents and windows. The department responded with its rescue vehicle, a tanker and pumper truck. They used fans to ventilate the trailer and cut into the wall with a chainsaw as they worked to put out the fire.
The motorhome belongs to a couple who are visiting the valley with their grandchildren. It does not appear that there were any injuries.
Bruce Wade of the Drumheller Fire Department said the incident was non-suspicious. "The fire was an accident and we tried to save as much of the motorhome as we could."
There were no injuries.
